Not for old people. No elevator. I think one of the articles said 1.3 million dollars. Well beyond
my budget.

Since the US has open borders and no citizenship test, sell that 6' yard shed and immigrate to shabby chic Detroit.

Hey, I like that, especially the wood panelling, the fireplace, all the
windows, lots of bedrooms, and there are other houses nearby. I don't
want a big estate. I want Timmy to have nearby friends he can play with
whenever he wants (None of these play dates.)

Picture 27 out of 70, 27/70, shows some very strange kitchen cabinets,
with heavy-duty hinges and latches. What do you suppose they are,
they're for?

Picture 50/70 is interesting too. A lot of support for the roof. Looks
like wine bottles sticking out in the back but they couldnt' have that
in the attic. Maybe it's the basement. But why are there so many
scaffolds.

Lots of tools. I wonder if this house is sold furnished, and tooled.

Two washers and two dryers. I'd better plan on having a lot of company.
Anyone here want to visit?

If I had a house like that, and no other big problems, life would be so
good I'd really hate to die.


Can I get 5 mortgages if I don't tell any of the five about the other 4.
Then maybe I could afford this house.

If I move to Detroit can I be friends with you and your hubby?

5 beds, not 5 bedrooms.

It looks nice too, and only 1/20 the price of the other. Empty lot
next door, room to play football.

This looks pretty messy. I'd try to find the other 7000 and buy the one
with the football field next door. And it already has a ramp for when
I get old.

In alt.home.repair, on Thu, 25 Feb 2021 07:27:19 -0500,

I think you're right about that, although OTOH there was an empty lot 2
doors from my house growing up. Just didn't get sold, until 2004, 80
years after mine. It's $239,000, not so little.

zillow doesn't rate my old house at all, but it's $95,400 on realtor.
And it's certainly a nice house, built in 1925 it says. I asked the
father of my friend across the street and I hthought it was the 30's.

One sign of it's age is that the upstairs bathroom was as big as a
bedroom. I guess because very early bathrooms were converted bedrooms,
and they hadn't thought to make them smaller in 1925.


The people who bought it from us put in cental air conditioning and
fixed the door on the garage. I could still be happy there. It's not
close to my job but heck, I don't have a job.


Here's a house near my boyhood home for a million:
https://www.realtor.com/realestateandhomes-detail/809-E-Maitland-Ln_New-Castle_PA_16105_M44230-51990
It includes 70 acres.

If I moved back to my boyhood home, it would ruin my plans for a
relationship with Cindy's family, but I'd save a million dollars.

>house. It is $18k for a reason.

But I do still agree that in first case they probably tore down the
house next door. You can still play football there.

I wouldn't be stupid enough to go to a restaurant even if they were open.
(They might be open; I'm just not interested in finding out.) Take-out is fine.

Looks like Washtenaw County has 1500-some new cases this week. No, thanks.
I'll stay home and cook.

4.5 million. Too much for me. Unless I could borrow the money and
subdivide and build houses. Maybe a mall and some services like autos,
barbershop, dry cleaning, saddles, blacksmith. I could call it
Mickytown. This is really a great idea. Thank you so much.

Yeah, I've listened to that show. For months, I thought the subject
would change at the top of the hour, or tomorrow, or next month, but it
was alway similar.

I think I listed to Art Bell and I know I've listened to George Noory.
Bbut only some nights and only until I fall asleep.
